NSW: Police investigate theft of explosives from mine

Explosives have been stolen from a private tin mine near the New South Wales costal
town of Port Macquarie.

Police say 80 sticks of explosives and 100 metres of fuse were taken from the mine
sometime between December 12 and 18.

They want to talk to anyone who was in the Bellangry State Forest between those dates
and who may have heard or seen something.

The forest is in an isolated area 40 kilometres north west of the nearest settlement of Wauchope.

The sticks of explosives are described as silver and about 15cm long, and the fuse cord is red.
